Early the next morning, the sun shone on the streets and alleys of Konoha.
In the square, a large number of Konoha citizens and ninjas from various tribes have already gathered.
"I heard that Fifth Hokage-sama is going to meet Lord Orochimaru in person today and announce his decision to rehabilitate Lord Orochimaru!"
"That's what he should be rehabilitated! Danzo, that old bastard died, it's really an advantage for him. He actually forced Lord Orochimaru to take such a big blame back then!"
"Fortunately, Hokage-sama cleaned up the cancer of Danzo in time, otherwise it might have harmed many people!"
After Shikaku Nara's carefully planned public opinion guidance in the past few days, coupled with the many crimes announced by the Government Affairs Hall about Danzo, Konoha's public opinion has been completely reversed.
After a while, on the high platform, the figure of Uchiha Yao appeared out of thin air!
Along with Uchiha Yao, there were Orochimaru and Shikaku Nara standing on one side.
The noisy crowd in the audience suddenly became quiet with the appearance of Uchiha Yao.
Uchiha Yao tilted his head slightly, glanced at Orochimaru beside him, and then said to everyone in the audience.
"Dear villagers of Konoha, and colleagues from various ministries."
"The village meeting was held today for two purposes."
"First, clear the source. After comprehensive verification by me and Government Affairs Hall, Orochimaru's so-called human experimentation and defection back then were all forced and framed by Danzo!"
"Today, I officially announce in the name of Fifth Hokage that all wanted orders against Orochimaru will be lifted and his name of Konoha'Sannin' will be restored!"
Uchiha Yao just finished speaking.
Thunderous cheers suddenly erupted in the square below!
"Hokage-sama is wise!"
Orochimaru looked at the people below, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
Here at Uchiha Yao, who holds absolute power and supreme power, white is white and black... can become white at any time!
"Kukukuk..."
Orochimaru laughed a few times in a low voice, bowed slightly to the people below, and showed the right expression on his face:
"Thank you Hokage-sama for your wise decision, and thank you all for giving me a chance to protect Konoha again."
"Orochimaru will definitely live up to Hokage-sama's trust and dedicate the rest of his life to the prosperity of Konoha!"
Uchiha Yao patted Orochimaru on the shoulder, and then continued.
"The second thing."
"Now that Shinobi World has been unified, the clouds of war have dissipated. But peace does not mean laissez-faire and stagnation!"
"The future Konoha must not only have the absolute power to defeat all enemies, but also have technology and civilization that are ahead of Shinobi World!"
"Therefore, I have decided to formally establish [Konoha First Science and Technology Research Institute]!"
"Orochimaru serves as the first Research Institute dean, coordinating all scientific and technological research and development, Bioengineering, infrastructure transformation and other all-round research of Konoha and even the entire Shinobi World!"
Upon hearing the news, there was another burst of exclamation and discussion among the crowd.
Although most civilians don't understand what Science and Technology Research Institute is, but from what Hokage-sama means, it's obvious that they want to reuse the technology of Orochimaru!
"Lord Orochimaru was Konoha's top genius back then. It's definitely right for him to take charge of the research and development!"
While the audience was talking a lot, Shikaku Nara whispered from behind, "Hokage-sama, leave the rest to me!"
Uchiha Yao nodded slightly. "Shikaku, please."
After saying that, Uchiha Yao waved his sleeves, and a twisted space Uzumaki was created out of thin air.
He and Orochimaru stepped into the space Uzumaki and disappeared on the high platform.
Shikaku Nara took a few steps forward, continued to guide public opinion, and exposed a series of evidence against Shimura Danzō and even all kinds of black materials about Third Hokage.
A few days later, Konoha, Eastern Research District.
Inside the office.
Uchiha Yao smiled slightly, put down the tea cup in his hand, and said:
"Orochimaru, your ability must be put here to maximize its value."
Orochimaru grinned.
"Hokage-sama, the environment and equipment here completely exceeded my expectations."
"With such scientific research conditions, I promise to produce results in the shortest possible time."
Uchiha Yao nodded.
"As long as you're satisfied."
"But..."
"There is a big Research Institute, and it will be a bit difficult for you to coordinate it all by yourself."
"Konoha's original scientific researchers are too rigid in their thinking and I'm afraid they won't be able to keep up with your pace."
Orochimaru raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this.
At this moment, there was a soft knocking sound outside the door.
"Come in."
Uchiha Yao looked towards the direction where the sound came from and said.
The door leaf opened, and a young man wearing round glasses walked in slowly.
The person who came was none other than Kabuto Yakushi, who was summoned by Uchiha Yao.
After Kabuto Yakushi was taken away from Konoha Orphanage by Uchiha Yao, he was handed over to Tsunade for cultivation.
With his extraordinary Medical Ninjutsu talent and extremely fine Chakra Control power, Kabuto Yakushi quickly emerged and had been working as an assistant to the Medical Department before.
Kabuto Yakushi walked into the office and bowed respectfully to Uchiha Yao:
"Hokage-sama, are you looking for me?"
Uchiha Yao looked at Kabuto Yakushi and smiled slightly:
"Kabuto, I came to see you today because I have a new appointment."
"Although the work at Tsunade is important, for your talents, it is a bit too limited in the outline."
"So, I decided to transfer to Konoha, the first Research Institute, to serve as Orochimaru's assistant."
Kabuto Yakushi glanced at Orochimaru subconsciously.
For Kabuto Yakushi, you can learn the top Medical Ninjutsu by following Tsunade.
However, when working at the Medical Department, many of Kabuto Yakushi's ideas and research ideas were greatly restricted.
And Orochimaru... there is no doubt that Shinobi World is the person who has gone the furthest in the field of scientific research and exploration!
Uchiha Yao feels that only by letting Kabuto Yakushi follow Orochimaru can he truly maximize his value!
"Thank you Hokage-sama for your trust! I will do my best to assist Lord Orochimaru in all Research Institute's work, and I will never let down Hokage-sama's love!"
Orochimaru also smiled when he saw this.
"Kukuku... Kabuto, since Hokage-sama has spoken, then you can follow me from now on."
"You will never be disappointed here."
Orochimaru is also very optimistic about his subordinate Kabuto Yakushi.
"Yes! Lord Orochimaru!" Kabuto Yakushi responded with a smile.
Uchiha Yao looked at the two people who had made the decision and nodded slightly.
"Very good. Shikaku will fully cooperate with you in the subsequent handover and resource allocation."
After explaining all this, Uchiha Yao didn't stay much longer, his figure swayed slightly and disappeared from the spot.
Looking at the place where Uchiha Yao disappeared, Kabuto Yakushi couldn't help but sigh:
"As expected of Hokage-sama... Such spatial attainments are truly amazing."
Orochimaru nodded in agreement, and then patted Kabuto Yakushi on the shoulder:
"Okay, Kabuto. Since Hokage-sama has given us such a good stage, let's get to work."
"Yes, Lord Orochimaru!"
Kabuto Yakushi pushed up his glasses, his eyes flashing with excitement.
